David M. Sobel; David G. Kamper; Yuyi Taylor; Joo-Hyun Song – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2025
We investigated the role of distinct inhibitory processes as 4- to 6-year-olds from the Northeastern United States (N = 48, M[subscript age] = 68.27 months, 22 boys, 26 girls; 63% White, 6% Black, 4% Asian, 2% Hispanic, 8% more than one race, with 17% not reporting) and adults evaluated accurate or deceptive information from human or non-human…

Sam Ihlenfeldt; Gregory K. W. K. Chung; Susan Lyons; Jordan Lawson; Elizabeth J. K. H. Redman – National Center for Research on Evaluation, Standards, and Student Testing (CRESST), 2025
In this evaluation study, we investigated the extent to which Solitaired.com's online game, Solitaire, could be used to model players' performance on several validated cognitive tests commonly associated with mental acuity (i.e., memory and processing speed). Prior research found that Solitaire gameplay is affected by mild cognitive impairment and…

Yunxiang Zhang; Huizhong He; Lixin Yi – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2025
The face inversion effect is an important indicator of holistic face perception and reflects the developmental level of face processing. This study examined the face inversion effect in deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) children aged 7-17 using the face dimensions task. This task uses photographic images of a face, in which configural and featural…

Lily Dicken; Thomas Suddendorf; Adam Bulley; Muireann Irish; Jonathan Redshaw – Child Development, 2025
Australian children aged 6-9 years (N = 120, 71 females; data collected in 2021-2022) were tasked with remembering the locations of 1, 3, 5, and 7 targets hidden under 25 cups on different trials. In the critical test phase, children were provided with a limited number of tokens to allocate across trials, which they could use to mark target…

Brenda C. Straka; Adam Stanaland; Sarah E. Gaither – Developmental Science, 2025
As young as 3 years old, children rely on a mutual intentionality framework to confer group membership--that is, agreement between a joiner ("I want to be in your group") and group ("We want you to be in our group"). Here, we tested whether children apply this cognitive framework in the context of identity-based groups,…

Anna Bäckström; Anna-Maria Johansson; Thomas Rudolfsson; Louise Rönnqvist; Claes von Hofsten; Kerstin Rosander; Erik Domellöf – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
Sensorimotor difficulties are common in children with autism spectrum disorder, and it has been suggested that motor planning problems underlie their atypical movements. At early school-age, motor planning development typically involves changes in visuomotor integration, a function known to be affected in autism spectrum disorder. However, there…

Chaoyang Jin; Jing Yan – Language Learning Journal, 2025
This systematic review aims to explore how task complexity and task sequencing affect the complexity, accuracy, and fluency (CAF) of second language performance. Through an analysis of studies conducted between 2012 and 2021, this review investigates the characteristics of the studies, operationalisation of task complexity, measurements of CAF,…
